[QUOTE="91svtcoupe, post: 11631074, member: 84794"] Here is the info. Sorry I haven't responded yet. I get about 15 PM's a month asking the same questions. Here is a serious of some info I have obtained about my wheels and my suspension set up. Ive been getting a lot of PM about my wheels. I also Still want to try and work out something on some 18" Victorys I just haven't had the time to dismount the tires from the wheels and get the BS measured. Here is the original Specs I give you. 18x9, 6 5/16" b.s.(255/40-18) 18x10, 6 3/8" b.s.(295/35-18) The below link shows where the guy who previously had them posted up the bs on the wheels. [url]http://forums.corral.net/forums/whee...-91-coupe.html[/url] If you notice on my white car they set about fender flush on the front (UPR Tubular A Arm and K-Member) and don't tuck like on the red car. That is from a shorter A-Arm (AJE Tubular A Arms and K Member) on the red car. But the rears on the white car actually set in just a tad and it has a Stock length 8.8 in it, opposed to the red car with a SN length rear end. I think if I could I would go just a tad bit less BS on each of the wheels. (Front and Rear) On the red car I have about 1/4 or less room to go before it would hit the inner fender. Now keep in mind I have 5lb hammer the inner rear fender wells and I have rolled the lips. Up front on the Red car Im only running a Half of a Inner fender, Top to the back. If I had a complete one they would rub on it bad. Another things is that on the red car with the extreme tuck I am running some neg camber, Top leaning in. This will as you know eventually wear out the tires, but I don't drive the car a lot. And on both cars the front coil overs are 300lbs so it rides like a skateboard. My suspensoin set up on the White Car: [U][I]FRONT[/I][/U] UPR Tubular K Member UPR Tubular A Arms Strange Adjustable Struts 300lb Qa1 Coil Over springs 12" or 14" QA1 Coil over sleeves 2" Race Craft Drop Spindles *94-95 (Also Allows the 9.5" wide CCW on the Front with Coil Overs) Geometry changes when using the Drop Spindle ARP Wheel Studs 03 Cobra Brakes, Crossed Drilled Rotors MM CC Plates [I][U]Rear:[/U][/I] MM Rear Lower Adjustable Weight Jacker Control Arms Eibach Pro Kit Springs Hotchkis Upper Adjustable Controls Arms Strange Adjustable Shocks Hammer inner fenders and Rolled Lips Red Car Suspesion: [I][U]Front:[/U][/I] AJE Tubular K member AJE Tubular A arms Strange Adjustable Struts QA1 350lb Coil Over springs 8" QA1 Coil over sleeves Spindles *94-95 ARP Wheel Studs 03 Cobra Brakes, Crossed Drilled Rotors MM CC Plates [I][U]Rear:[/U][/I] MM Rear Lower Adjustable Weight Jacker Control Arms H & R Super Sport Springs (These work Best) HPM Upper Adjustable Controls Arms Strange Adjustable Shocks Hammer inner fenders and Rolled Lips Here is some new info I got after doing some more searching. [U]Previous owner's PM[/U] Steve told me to talk to 04sleeper over on svtperformance.

Steve said I might be able to get away with just replacing the inner wheel hoop. Will I be able to keep my 285's on my fox? here is my for sale thread when I planned on selling them. True Forged Mach 5's. 18x9/10.5. Black and chrome with BFG tires. thanks, mike I am checking with Steve right now on available sizes of hoops. I will let you know something as soon as I find out. Kevin thanks Almost forgot to get back to you. Steve said he should be able to change the rear hoops and they should work on your Fox. With the 6.875 BS now, you take off .5 inches from the rear hoop size and that will make it 6.375 backspacing and will make the wheel a 10 inch wide wheel. This should work about perfect with the 285 tire on a Fox. Hope this helps, Kevin Thanks alot for all the comments and maybe this will help with some questions I have been getting regarding my wheels. See ya around Rob [/QUOTE]
